Note that "C-x o" selects a window.  The value of `current-buffer'
may (or may not) change as a result of selecting a window, but the
`other-window' command will not cause changes to any of the buffers
themselves.

I think it's become clearer by using the phrase "change the text
in the buffer" rather than the earlier phrase "changing the buffer"
-- which I expect meant exactly the same thing, but which could be
misinterpreted in the above manner.
